Embodiment 1

[0048] The ring-shaped stacking system in this embodiment is composed of multiple stacking devices, and each stacking device is connected to two adjacent stacking devices through its own two ports, for example, see figure 1 The ring-shaped stacking system shown is composed of stacking equipment A, stacking equipment B, stacking equipment C, stacking equipment D, and stacking equipment E. Stacking equipment A communicates with adjacent stacking equipment B and stacking equipment through its own two ports. E connection, other stacking devices are also connected in a similar way to connect to their respective adjacent stacking devices. It should be understood that the number of stacking devices included in the stacking system in this embodiment can be flexibly set according to specific application scenarios, and can be 4, 5, and so on. In this embodiment, the path of each stacking device in the ring stacking system can only be two exits, that is, its own two ports connected to ad...

Embodiment 2

[0065] The ring-shaped stacking system provided in this embodiment is still composed of multiple stacking devices, and each stacking device is connected to two adjacent stacking devices through its own two ports. In this embodiment, the path of each stacking device in the ring stacking system can only be two outlets, that is, its own two ports connected to adjacent stacking devices. In this embodiment, when the ring-shaped stacking system fails, the stacking devices on both sides of the fault point can detect the fault by detecting that the state of their corresponding ports is down or that the stacking system is split. In this embodiment, it is called The first stacking device and the adjacent stacking devices that are directly connected to the stacking device that detects the fault are referred to as second stacking devices. Therefore, in this embodiment, each stacking device in the ring stacking system may be the first stacking device or the second stacking device at a cert...

Embodiment 3

[0085] The ring-shaped stacking system provided in this embodiment is still composed of multiple stacking devices, and each stacking device is connected to two adjacent stacking devices through its own two ports. In this embodiment, the path of each stacking device in the ring stacking system can only be two outlets, that is, its own two ports connected to adjacent stacking devices. In this embodiment, when the ring-shaped stacking system fails, the stacking devices on both sides of the fault point can detect the fault by detecting that the state of their corresponding ports is down or that the stacking system is split. In this embodiment, it is called The first stacking device and the adjacent stacking devices that are directly connected to the stacking device that detects the fault are referred to as second stacking devices. Therefore, in this embodiment, each stacking device in the ring stacking system may be the first stacking device or the second stacking device at a cert...

Abstract

The invention provides a path switching method for an annular stacking system, a first stacking device and a second stacking device. The annular stacking system is composed of multiple stacking devices, wherein each stacking device is connected with two adjacent stacking devices through two ports; the first stacking device, which detects an annular stacking system failure at a certain port thereof, transmits a single-hop switching message to the adjacent second stacking device; the second stacking device, which receives the single-hop switching message through a certain port thereof, switchesa device path with the path outlet being a port for receiving the switching message into a new path with the path outlet being the other port of the second stacking device in all device paths except for a device path connected with the first stacking device, thereby being capable of completing reliable and fast switching of a path including a failure port, being capable of completing fast failureconvergence of the annular stacking system without complex topological calculation, not causing CPU rush of the stacking devices during the period, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a method for switching paths in a ring stacking system, and first and second stacking devices. Background technique [0002] In switch and PTN (Packet Transport Network) and other product fields, under normal circumstances, when a link failure or equipment failure occurs in the ring stacking system, the ring breaking phenomenon of the ring stacking system will first occur. After this phenomenon occurs, Generally, stacking devices will use a network topology calculation method to calculate each stacking device in the stacking system after the ring is broken. The calculation method is generally the same as the SPF (Shortest Path First) is calculated in a similar manner, and the shortest path from each device to any device in the system is calculated in the system. [0003] However, the topology calculation of each stack device will be involved after the ring is broken. Therefore...
